Hmmm....

So I should add "contextual menu support" to my list of big holes that 
need to be filled in JavaFX prior to even bothering with any attempt to 
use JavaFX for any enterprise application?

Other items in the list include good containers/layouts (of course) that 
handle everything GridBagLayout/GroupLayout/MigLayout handle, and a 
component set approximating that in Swing (and most notably including 
really great trees and tables).
